Pieter Casteels II keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. The most saturated colour, #CBC2AE, is reserved to 5.1% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. At 57 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 3 of Pieter Casteels II's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
